I’ll start, Deadman wonderland, I remember watching it when I was just a teen, it was wonderfully gory, had sex appeal, an interesting premise, all the things a young guy likes. But I got to I think the third episode and I was like “what happened?” The action totally fell off, no character development was happening, it was just boring.

This sticks out to me since I have such a high suspension of disbelief so I like pretty much all media, the fact that this made teenage me stop watching a series midway just shows how much I didn’t like it compared to the start.

What about y’all, what series let you down?

    I really want to like Hellsing Ultimate. The same story I love, but turned up to 11! Nazis fighting the Vatican fighting Vampires, what’s not to love?

    Well it turns out when you turn everything up to 11, it mostly just becomes noise. A lot of the interesting subtle moments that I enjoyed in Hellsing were either dropped or abridged. Don’t even get me started on the extreme tone flipflopping! I stopped watching about halfway through, and don’t think I’ll ever pick it back up.
